From the Private Files of Scotland Yard Commissioner Rushworth Ramsgate - Part 12:

She Slips the Bonds of Earth....

The French
have a phrase about a woman not being a woman without surprises. While I believe the phrase was created before
the birth of my friend Lady Dorrington, it might have been penned to describe
her. A request for Scotland Yard
assistance came from West Sussex regarding a grisly shotgun murder implicating
a young noble. Given the ancient family
involved I determined to invite Tasha to consult on the case.

Imagine my astonishment when delivering the request to find Tasha not at home
but at the controls of an aeroplane! She is learning to fly! I can
only hope that each excursion into the clouds will end with a safe return to
terra firma. Her assertion that
"any landing you can walk away from is a good one" is not reassuring.
